Horizontal price cuts provide us with several unprecedented deals in the NVMe field
We are used to seeing such scheduled price drops only in the Deal of the Day projects of the giant shopping platform, but this time it seems that we have a significant price drop for most of the storage drives of the Crucial brand from the American company Micron, without prior warning and without a clear time limit. This is the right time to upgrade to modern storage at great to unprecedented prices.
Crucial P5 Plus 2TB drive, the most advanced model offered by the brand for the home market today, with continuous transfer speeds of up to 6,600MBps and random performance of up to 720,000IOPS in systems with an M.2 interface in the PCI-Express 4.0 standard (including compatibility for expanding the internal storage on PlayStation consoles 5) – Available for only $122.99 as a base including free shipping to Israel, so the final price you will pay is $152.79 or NIS 543 to NIS 556 depending on the conversion fees available to you.
For comparison, until today the lowest price for this model was 149.99 dollars as a base, and about 120 shekels above the current price in the final calculation.

An even cheaper 2TB NVMe drive is the Crucial P3, with continuous transfer speeds of up to 3,500MBps and random small-file performance of up to 700,000IOPS under PCI-Express 3.0 interface – at a base price of $107.99 that becomes $135.23 with Delivery and VAT, or between NIS 480 and NIS 492 approximately.

An advanced portable external SSD drive of the Crucial X8 type, which reaches continuous transfer speeds of up to 1,050MBps under USB 3.2 Gen 2 connections, drops for the first time below the Israeli VAT exemption threshold for a volume of 1TB and adds to that delivery at no additional cost to your doorstep – So that $74.74 becomes your final price, while it will be translated into an amount between NIS 265 and NIS 272.

Do you really need a SATA drive in the “classic” 2.5-inch form? The famous Crucial MX500 is available for only $52.73 including free shipping in a volume of 1TB, or NIS 187 to NIS 192 depending on conversion fees. It’s hard to believe that until about six months ago the price of this model on Amazon was $99.99 and through the addition of VAT from the buyers which made it more than 2 times more expensive than the current pricing.

We will remind you that Amazon has an old bug that sometimes affects the calculation of the amount of tax required to be paid for consumers from Israel. Have you come across a checkout with higher prices than those listed in the article? Try adding another small, cheap product with free shipping available to your cart (like this one, for example) and you should see the price drop a few dollars to its best value.
